The artistic interpretation of Tolkien's imagination can be breathtaking. Or it can be appalling... Join in on the discussion of the artistic representations and collectible items in the Tolkien universe.

Hi everyone. I am after some information on a drawing/sketch that my mother-in-law found in a thrift shop. It is with me now and I would love to know the history of it.

It appears to be called: THE RINGand underneath it has "Michael Williams 1968 with acknowledgements to Proffessor (yes spelt with two 'f's) J.R.R.Tolkien"and underneath that it has "Michael Williams 2002" handwrittenand to the far right it has Copyright Reserved

The piece begins with Bilbo at Bag End, and ends with Gandalf on Shadowfax.

It appears to be drawn in fine-tip pen, and has colour. Each little pic is connected by tree branches crossing through them all.
